Chapter 206: Chapter 37_2 "Just a woman, wearing a mask, with short hair, and wrapped up tightly despite the heat of summer." Tan Yunlong said to a colleague nearby: "There must be a mistake, he was speaking the Nantong dialect, that gang is from out of town."
Tomb-robbing gangs generally consist of relatives as core members, it’s very rare for outsiders, let alone people from other provinces to join. Greed can drive people, but the thing they fear most when dealing with riches from the dead isn’t the dead themselves, but being double-crossed.
"Captain Tan, does that mean we’ve been discovered?"
"Probably. Your work wasn’t meticulous enough; they might have noticed us long ago and that’s why they haven’t been caught. However, it’s also possible that they’re just sounding us out."
Tan Yunlong suddenly thought of something, when you throw a stone to test the waters, you at least need to stand by and watch the ripples it creates.
He immediately pushed open the door and walked out of the Security Department, heading to the bench area. There were a lot of people there, and his eyes quickly scanned across them.
"Uncle Tan."
Li Zhiyuan’s voice came over, and it was only then Tan Yunlong realized that at some point, the boy had gone out on his own.
First, he looked at him and then followed the direction the boy discreetly pointed to. In the corridor leading to the water room to the east, a person was leaving. From the back, it was a woman.
Tan Yunlong immediately leaped over the bench in front of him and quickly followed her.
Seemingly hearing the urgent footsteps behind her, the woman quickly switched from walking to running, and a chase ensued.
When several policemen came over later, they couldn’t find Captain Tan and didn’t know which direction he had gone. Li Zhiyuan came over to remind them:
"Uncle Tan went that way, chasing a female suspect."
The policemen then ran off to reinforce.
Li Zhiyuan didn’t follow to see the commotion but went back to the Security Department, where a plainclothes officer was still watching the pickpocket.
Pouring himself a glass of water, Li Zhiyuan sat down on the chair and slowly waited.
Earlier, after hearing the pickpocket speaking in the Nantong dialect, he came out. Though there were a lot of people in the central bench area, it was not difficult to find someone.
The hospital room of those two "water monkeys" was at the very west end, meaning that if you draw a line connecting the hospital room and the Security Department and then project that line onto a plane falling on the bench area, the
The books all mention various methods to eliminate Corpses but offer no guidance on how to help them; however, the books also list many taboos when dealing with Corpses...
So, by using these taboos in reverse, I can do it.
This way, even if there’s a tough nut in that "water monkey" gang, I can still back Little Huang Ying up.
Fisting his hand, Li Zhiyuan gently knocked his forehead, suddenly realizing:
What kind of crooked thinking is this?
But he quickly rationalized it to himself. He’s been exposed to archaeology since childhood, has seen countless national treasures destroyed by tomb robbers, and has witnessed the anguish of many senior archaeologists.
